A woman is dead. The village of Wychford believes it knows who: the reckless twin, the one who always courted trouble.

But Jasper Finch, the quiet pharmacist who dispenses prescriptions to the entire village, has noticed something no one else has: the surviving sister reaches for the counter with the wrong hand.

Jasper Finch doesn't make a fuss. He runs the family pharmacy his father left him, fills prescriptions, listens to people who don't quite know what they're trying to say, and keeps meticulous records. He is not, by any stretch, a detective. But when a woman he has known for years comes in after her sister's death and quietly, unmistakably, begins to fail the tests only a pharmacist would think to set, Jasper finds himself holding a truth too dangerous to ignore.

The clues are all pharmaceutical. A terminal prescription that simply stops. A side effect never once reported in four years suddenly appearing. A childproof cap never requested by a woman who has always requested it. Every discrepancy is small. Together, they are devastating.

A Dosage of Deception is a cozy murder mystery set in the English Cotswolds, featuring an amateur sleuth unlike any other: a community pharmacist whose superpower is not theatrical deduction, but the quiet, relentless pattern recognition of a scientist who finds inconsistencies physically uncomfortable to leave unresolved. Jasper Finch sees what no one else does, not because he is brilliant, but because he pays attention. He always pays attention.

Perfect for fans of classic British village mysteries, this pharmacy-themed murder mystery weaves medical intrigue, a twin-switch twist, and a deeply moral question into a story that doesn't flinch from complexity: when justice and mercy pull in different directions, which one wins?

A Dosage of Deception is the first book in an ongoing cozy mystery series set in the English village of Wychford, where every secret eventually passes through the dispensary window.
